Copper Alloy C96200-M01 vs C96200-M07
Copper Alloy · C96200 temper comparison
C96200-M01 and C96200-M07 are two conditions of the same copper alloy grade, C96200: M01 (as sand cast) versus M07 (as continuous cast). The chemistry is identical, so every difference below comes from the condition. C96200-M07 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 190 MPa (27.6 ksi) against 179 MPa (26 ksi) for C96200-M01, about 6% more; tensile strength follows at 340 MPa (49.3 ksi) vs 317 MPa (46 ksi). C96200-M07 is harder — 85 HB against 80 HB for C96200-M01 — which matters for wear surfaces and threads.
C96200-M07Choose it when strength drives the design, or when surface hardness matters.
C96200-M01 vs C96200-M07: propertiesHow to read these bars
- One bar per material. A full bar is the highest value among all copper alloy grades in the FabDigit library; each bar is drawn as a share of that.
- The better value (by the usual engineering direction) is in bold. Rows with no direction — density, thermal conductivity — have no bold.
- Values are typical room-temperature figures for the condition named on each card.
- Confirm against the certified mill or resin datasheet before design release.
